Overview

• After ending her ZDF talk show and joint podcast in May, Passmann surprised followers by swapping her trademark copper-red hair for a cool blonde tone.
• She posted before-and-after videos and images on Instagram and TikTok, thanking stylist Apjar Aziz Black with the message “Ich küsse dein Herz und dein Haupthaar.”
• The multi-step process involved bleaching with hydrogen peroxide to strip red pigments and a lilac gloss to neutralize orange undertones.
